A	Alexandre Meirelles on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Construida no séc. XVI, trata-se de uma "Igreja-salão" com três naves cobertas por abóbadas, nos estilos maneirista, barroco e ecléctico, da autoria de Jorge Rodrigues. No interior, destacam-se uma série de altares do século XVII, do lado de quem entra encontra o altar de São Tiago, o de São Sesinando e o de Nossa Senhora da Conceição; do lado da Epístola distribuem-se os altares de Santo António, de São José (com pinturas de André Reinoso) e do Santíssimo. A pedido de Dom José do Patrocínio Dias, a Santa Sé elevou a igreja de Santiago Maior a Sé Catedral de Beja, sob a invocação do Sagrado Coração de Jesus. As obras de adaptação ocorreram de 1932 a 1947 e incluíram, para além das obras na fachada principal, a incorporação de diversas obras de arte vindas de conventos extintos de Lisboa.

E	Emilio Delgado on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Es sencilla pero muy hermosa, de vista obligada. Construida con un estilo renacentista maximizado con el minimalismo, es una catedral donde la belleza de la luz, las columnas y los blancos destacan. Las tallas en su interior son de gran calidad orfebre y es un monumento muy bien cuidado con amplios horarios para ser visto. No puedes marcharte sin ver el retablo estilo barroco que contrasta con el resto del lugar o los murales con los típicos azulejos portugueses It is simple but very beautiful, of forced sight. Built with a Renaissance style maximized with minimalism, it is a cathedral where the beauty of light, columns and whites stand out. The carvings inside are of great quality goldsmith and is a very well-kept monument with ample hours to be seen. You can not leave without seeing the baroque style altarpiece that contrasts with the rest of the place or the murals with the typical Portuguese tiles

I	Ian Jackson-smith on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Beautiful simple church that is worth visiting if you are stopping by the castle. Lots of blue tile artwork all over the walls, moat of it appears to be original.
A	Anthony Stedman on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Beautiful cloisters tiled in beautiful portuguese tiles. Whilst impressive, the building is in desperate need of some TLC. The paintings are all in poor condition. None I'd the interesting archeological exhibits have explanatory notes in English... The cover charge of 2 euro is small. Maybe it should be increased so the saving of the paintings and building can be accelerated. Worth a visit but don't expect to be in awe
